As far as I know, *Office Password Unlocker* is capable of removing ms document passwords, including password to open and password to edit. -- tina1203 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tina1203's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/119919.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/ms-office-support/894654.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

How to unlock word documents
I think in the year that has transpired since Tina posted the problem,
she has already solved it. Barbara2010 wrote: I think this is what you are wanting. Really wonderful information. Try it yourself : To unprotect a Word document that has been locked, read on: 1) With the document open press F11 while holding down shift and alt (Alt-Shift-F11). This should launch the script editor in Word; 2) Next select the find option (or hit ctl-f), and run a find for the word "password." This should highlight something liket his"32943208"; 3) Delete the letters and numbers between the tags (in the above example this would be the 32943208); 4) Save the document in the script editor and close the window. You should now be back in your Word document; 5) From the "Tools" pulldown menu, select "unprotect." Your document should now be unprotected. it that doesn't word, try a 3rd party utilities which is claim to unlock password-protected word document like Word Password Recovery 5.0 hope to help you! good luck! |
